Quilted jackets were long forgotten after 2009. But now, they are making a comeback in the fashion world. Quilted jackets are a wardrobe staple not only in winter but also in spring.

Lightweight quilted jackets are a wonderful alternative to the hefty wools and thick parkas that are popular throughout the winter season. When the weather is cool but not cold, just layer on one of these pieces in a solid or pattern variation, and when the cold weather arrives, include it as a layer under your heavier jackets.

Here are some inspirations for you to choose from for your next quilted jacket look.
